milk lap

This morning I spilled a half full bowl of cereal on myself. Tipped it right over onto my own lap.
If I wasn't sure how this day was going to go before, now I'm sure. It's going to be a cereal-and-milk-in-the-lap kind of day. Awesome.
The funny thing is that when it happened, the first coherent thought in my head was "this is going to happen a lot when I have kids, isn't it?" The piling laundry heap, the milk spilling down my shirt and sweatpants, the half-awake stumble for a napkin- for some reason this makes me think of parenting. 
Oh, don't you worry, I changed into a different pair of sweatpants and a different blue tshirt- I will get ready for work on my own terms, thank you very much. Then I poured myself another bowl of cereal. I showed that cereal who's boss...or proved to my clumsy self that I am capable of eating cereal. One of those.
